—Description

Great Ax is a mid-ranked axe that any race can use. It provides 71 attack at level 1 and 148 attack at level 30, and has one empty slot. It can be created for 420 gil by using Iron x5, Yew Branch x2, and Bone x2 on Hard or Very Hard mode. When turned into a jewel, a level 3-9 Great Ax makes a Guard Stone 2, level 10-19 makes a Draconium, and level 20-30 makes a Guard Stone 5.

An axe stronger than the battle axe. It didn't take long for the axe to be considered a proper weapon once people began using it in battle. Unlike the sword and the bow, which require extensive training, the convenience of the axe comes from the destruction it can cause by simply being swung about. Research on axe enhancements, such as how to make them easier to handle, more durable, and lighter, still continues to this day.
